Pyjamas and Activity Sets needed

Tracey from Kelburn

Hi all,

I'm starting a non-profit initiative where I organize packs that are gifted to teenagers. Teenagers are frequently forgotten by donors, and as a teenager who has spent a large amount of time in hospital, this is a very important cause to me. I am looking for donations of new pajamas (sized for 14 - 18-year-olds, boys and girls) and activity kits such as diamond dots, coloring books and pencils, bracelet-making kits, exc. You can pick most of this stuff at your local warehouse, Kmart, or spotlight. They only cost $5-10 but it goes a long way toward helping teens through a tough time. Below I've linked some examples of the products I mean, however any other products that fit what I have listed above would be welcome. These products will be greatly appreciated by those who receive them. Please email projecttheraindrop@gmail.com if you are intending to donate items, and drop off all items you donate to 22 Grove Road, Kelburn, Wellington, 6012.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
